EXTERIOR FINISHING
The exterior frame and sash are protected by aluminum cladding with a Pella EnduraClad® or
EnduraClad Plus baked-on factory finish that needs no painting. Clean this surface with mild
soap and water. Stubborn stains and deposits may be removed with mineral spirits. DO NOT use
abrasives. DO NOT scrape or use tools that might damage the surface.
Use of inappropriate finishes, solvents, brickwash or cleaning chemicals will cause adverse
reactions with window and door materials and voids the Limited Warranty.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Care and maintenance information is available in the Pella Owner's Manual. You can obtain an
owner's manual by contacting your local Pella retailer. This information is also available at www.
pella.com.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Because all construction must anticipate some water infiltration, it is important that the wall system
be designed and constructed to properly manage moisture. Pella Corporation is not responsible
for claims or damages caused by anticipated and unanticipated water infiltration; deficiencies in
building design, construction and maintenance; failure to install Pella
with Pella installation instructions; or the use of Pella products in wall systems which do not allow
for proper management of moisture within the wall systems. The determination of the suitability of
all building components, including the use of Pella products, as well as the design and installation
of flashing and sealing systems are the responsibility of the Buyer or User, the architect, contractor,
installer, or other construction professional and are not the responsibility of Pella.
Pella products should not be used in barrier wall systems which do not allow for proper
management of moisture within the wall systems, such as barrier Exterior Insulation and Finish
Systems, (EIFS) (also known as synthetic stucco) or other non-water managed systems. Except
in the states of California, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado, Pella makes no
warranty of any kind and assumes no responsibility for Pella windows and doors installed in
barrier wall systems. In the states listed above, the installation of Pella products in barrier wall or
similar systems must be in accordance with Pella installation instructions.
Product modifications that are not approved by Pella Corporation will void the Limited Warranty.
